Seven Arts Pictures Plc Announces Refinancing of Its Production and Post-Production Facility in New Orleans

Seven Arts' affiliates have been engaged in production and post-production activities on this property since its acquisition at the end of 2007 and expect to conduct production and post-production activities there on its upcoming Louisiana productions, including "Booty Patrol" and "Schism" which have been in production since September of this year. Seven Arts expects expenditures on its production and post-production center to generate in excess of $7,500,000 of federal and state historic infrastructure and state film infrastructure tax credits from its expenditure in connection with this production and post-production facility.

Peter Hoffman, CEO of Seven Arts, commented: "We are excited to continue our long-standing relationship with Palm Finance by a substantial reduction of the indebtedness against our production and post-production facility at 807 Esplanade in New Orleans. Palm has also graciously extended us a $1,850,000 construction facility which will permit completion of the building by May 31, 2011. Seven Arts has been using this facility for its production and post-production activities since 2007 and intends to increase its use with its current program of lower budget pictures in Louisiana. Seven Arts further intends to adopt a trainee and film seminar program with local education institutions to expand the job training and skills available in Louisiana as part of Seven Arts' commitment to the Louisiana film program, which has been so beneficial to Seven Arts and its productions."
